Not easily told by sight from White-tipped Dove, which occurs alongside Caribbean in Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. Best feature is white face and pale bluish nape of Caribbean Dove. Also compare Gray-headed Dove. In flight, all species show white tail corners and rusty on underwings.

A very little-known, large, black ground bird endemic to the upland forests on Waigeo Island. Black above with some chestnut in the breast and a bare pink head and throat. The male has rather distasteful flaps of bare red skin on the head and a wattle hanging down from the base of the throat. The male often twitches his head. The only other member of the family on Waigeo is the Dusky Scrubfowl, but Waigeo Brushturkey is larger with a pinkish head.

Medium-sized gray terrestrial bird with long tail and pointed crest, found in thick heath and dense bushland of southwestern Australia and in ranges of southern South Australia. Plumage mostly gray, with pale tail tips and greenish tones in the wing. Black throat bordered by broad white moustache. Typically very shy and difficult to observe. Calls are long, rolling, whistled phrases.
